Carbon Fiber

[BCBSPTC]

Trying to see what CF brand i want to go with. I've used VIS before and it was pretty good. Wondering what other people are using. Anyone have any brand that faded or cracked? Been trying to find CF pieces, but they're hard to come across, being either no longer made or out of stock.......

[bipolarscion]

vis
seibon
carbon creations
bbist
ground dynamic
fast scions.com
raceing solutions.com

these places/companies are a few that offer carbon fiber parts.

I am partial to seibon.

you will have no problem with fadeing or cracking if you follow the car instructions. and if the part has a uv clear coat on it.

in this case the term " you get what you paid for" is true.

vis and seibon are the most exspensive but they two companies that guarentee fitment with little to no modiciation. that doesn't require you to take to a experience body shop for fitment.

[BCBSPTC]

The VIS hood i had was good quality, but it was back in 06 and had a huge weave, when i was used to seeing tightly woven cf. A friend had an AIT hood an it cracked within two weeks......I was trying to get the best combo from a company.......wanting a hood/hatch combo, but not sure about fitment.

[bipolarscion]

i say seibon, my hood is beautiful, and the hatch from what i hear is awesome fit ment too. i highly recomend them. look around at a few scion parts venders on the forums most of them carry seibon hoods and hatchs I am sure they can cut you a deal if you buy both.

[_Keith_]

The racing solutions engine cover I had awhile back turned yellow after 2 months... and I was treated like shit... and carbon creations is extreme dimensions... dont deal with those two...

Ive had bad experience with seibon hoods in the past, with a 350z I helped build, sounds like they fixed thier issues though. Probally changed suppliers.

[2dot4]

racingsolution.com = NO!

i ordered a CF engine cover, and was dicked around with for 6 months, he kept claiming they were on backorder, and never updated his site to say so...so his dumbass kept taking orders for parts he didn't have, or know when he was getting. I'm glad I cancelled the order, because like keith said, I've heard terrible things. The guy did admit to me that he bought the engine covers from china...and ebay shows us the astounding quality of Chinese parts.

The best CF comes from france, in case you guys were wondering.

so are they bad for everything on your car or just certain pieces? I was looking at maybe getting a lip kit from them in the future, but from what you say they have bad customer services

I got my carbon fiber rear lip spoiler from racingsolution, ordered it on Monday, got it on Friday :up: I'll definitely buy from them again. Brian seems like a really good guy. Sucks to hear that someone had a bad experience with them..

[strike69]

well I was looking at a lip kit from them. I don't think it was carbon fiber, but just recently lowered the car so that will have to wait.

[BCBSPTC]

On the carbon fiber lip kit subject........ Does cf spider(crack) when rocks hit it, or is it pretty durable on the front of a car?

[KiSS]

i think i m the only one on the planet that has had a bad experience with vis.

bought a hood from them and it was all dented and it was yellow within 4 months. prolly just a bunk hood fro the get go, but nonetheless cost me about 5 bills.

got rid of it and got a used MotorFX hood. damn thing is perfect. :mrg: next plan is the CF hatch from racing solution.

[toeveryhour]

I don't know Jason, I have a VIS hatch, it's been in use since Sept 07, no problemos yet.


I wouldn't recommend AIT Racing for CF btw

[Tctuner07]

thx for the info so racingsolution=bad and :Banane22:fastscion=good

[KiSS]

okay. got my CF hatch from racing solution. this thing is the tits! it was dropped shipped from ABS Dynamics. great communication from racing solution. kept me informed at every step of the way.

i gotta tell you, this thing looks flawless! it even has the carbon interior plate too. i didnt think it was coming with it. damn things are like 200 on ebay by itself. gona throw it all on tomorrow.

also got the CF trunk handle cover from island motorsports, and a CF wing from car option.

[tCMetaLFReaK]

Anyone heard of Deft Racing?

I see a hot lava B there. I like the idea of colored CF.

i have been told that their stuff is good, but i have never seen any of their products

For real, because i have had it now for like 5 months and it is perfectly fine, could be that they have switched to a better quality...

and as for Carbon Fiber i am about to order the Kaminari Reverse Cowl Hood, a friend of mine has it, and its fantastic

Got mine from www.viniati.com (http://www.viniati.com)
Best place i have ever done business with. They kept me informed about everything that was going on. They said that the hood was lost but the people that do there shipping sat it aside and totally forgot to ship. They really busted there ass open for leaving my hood in shipping and not doing anything with it. The shipping place had it to me the next day after finding it. It came all the way from california. Man that must have costed a shit load.

[SupertCNoVa]

that is one nice hood dude. not to get off topic is there a site for regular not cf

[anti_virus347]

What about having them colored? Has anyone had problems with that? Im thinking about getting on off ebay and they said they can color it for $120 extra : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=018&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=280250892660&rd=1

I am never a big fan of EBAY. They are just horrible about everything. Things take to long to get to you, there the wrong product. But different colors on c/f. I have only seen the regular and silver. the other colors would be interesting to see but never heard of orange c/f lol

[Raging_Sciko]

For color carbon fiber, I would check out Deftracing.com before looking and committing to something on ebay.

[BeBe2630]

Nice hoods. I'm planing on ghetting a cf hood too but the reverse crowl from kaminari.

[eviljack]

Man that yellow carbon fiber from deftracing.com would look amazing on my RS5. If only them made a hood for the Gen2xB. Not a bad price either.

[Hot Dog]

Has anyone ever used a company called Illstreet.com???? good price but trying to check them out
Thanks for your feedback got 20 hr's to make up my mind one way or the other...

try here i got my trunk trim from here and had to modify just slightly to fit. i had to make the opening a little bigger by sanding. but other wise it worked. Also it took about 2 weeks to get because they make it then send.

[Luc1f3r]

w00t! they have 2 pieces i want, i emailed them to see if they could get the gas door made.

[VIP_tC08]

Just a heads up do not order from http://body-kitz.com/ i bought my Kaminari CF Rev. Cowl Hood from them, and turns out they are producing counterfeit Kaminari and i imagine the other hoods they have, but i have been in contact with Kaminari directly and will be recieving a totally free authentic hood from them freshly made, for just helping them out and file a complaint..Oh and sorry guys my fake hood is already sold (buyer is aware its fake)

[muzachead]

w00t! they have 2 pieces i want, i emailed them to see if they could get the gas door made.

which two?

[Luc1f3r]

actually, after talking to them they have everything i want, and are going to make the gas door after i send them a stock one so they can make a mold.

[muzachead]

sweet deal, i am glad that worked out for ya.

r u sponsored by killerglass? can you hook me up with a blue one?

[Luc1f3r]

lmao, i am sponsored by killerglass, not a sales person for them. talk to Tim, the owner of Killerglass (who is a member of the forums) and see what they can do, they will take care of ya. i think there is a sale going on now actually, check the sponsored sale section, look for the last post made by Tim.

I'll be sure to let you know
my car is getting upgrades like crazy lol
i no longer buy things for myself!

[1KlntC07]

Hey ProjectGreen, where did you get your hatch from, and how well does it fit. I'm trying to find a reliable place to get a hatch.

[ProjectGreen]

I got it from Seibon, each hatch fits slightly different but they are the best match to OEM. One recommendation though, it may cost more but go through a store to get it. These hatches have a tendency of breaking during shipping. (It took three attempts to get a useable one)

[falseidolsfall]

anyone know where I can get a carbon fiber radiator panel?
all the websites say that Greddy discontinued it

[ProjectGreen]

Ummm ... that is a good question. I am sure there are places that still sell them

[falseidolsfall]

I'm trying to get a hold of one for weeks
websites say they have them in stock, but when I call to make sure they actually don't..
I've looked on Ebay.. i'm not sure what else to do

[ProjectGreen]

How good are you at fabrication? I am sure you can get a sheet of carbon fiber and DIY.

I am trying to remember where I have seen them at though.

[falseidolsfall]

Idk
I was considering just getting a black plastic one..
aluminum would ruin the look of my car
I've almost given up hope
a local shop could make one but that's too $$ i'm sure

[ProjectGreen]

That could work. Try looking on Scionlife too. That is where I got mine from I cant remember what vendor. I can also ask around here and see where people have gotten theirs from.

[falseidolsfall]

wait you got the greddy CF radiator panel?
I envy you lol.
please do ask around and get back with me!!!
I'll try scion life also

[ProjectGreen]

KK you have a PM

[1KlntC07]

My sponsor is actually getting into wrapping alot of CF things, if you want I can ask how much he would charge to wrap a radiator panel. Once I get some money saved up I'm going to have him wrap a few things for my tc.

[falseidolsfall]

please! I would appreciate that

Actually I just noticed in the classified section that krazylowgsx is selling a greddy cf one. Jump on it! lol

I'd try racingsolution.com

[TOMMYPHAM]

every one selling CF lip kit for TC

[Human Collapse]

I read a couple of people on SL said that the CF RS1 lip kit doesn't fit perfectly on the tC. Do any of you have experience with this kit CF or not? I really like the RS1 kit, but I don't want a part that doesn't fit my car after paying $800...

[k0ntr0lledka0s]

hey go to andysautosport.com dey have nice carbon fiber stuff der and i bought my hood der. ive had it for a year and it still looks brand new. no fade or anythin.

[Idea_Chaser]

i got a full carbon fiber lip kit for 450 shipped how bout that??? Not overlay kit direct placement!!

[goodguy889]

pre warning, if anyone was looking into getting the carbon creations carbon fiber fenders, they need prep work to put on the car. the first set that was on my car were the first fenders for the tc, i did buy them used but the fitment was really good, i just bought a new set and they are different, they have sides that come down that need to be grinded down, and they were heavier then the first set. just a warning.

I haven't had any recent complaints of fitment on the RS1 Carbon Fiber kits. I can tell you that any aftermarket part won't "fit perfect" .. That is to be expected.. but the quality of the kit is great and you will be happy with it

i am currently running an injen CAI that is chrome but the above would match my theme better....also i would probably have to sell my current one before upgrading.....just trying to get some opinions before i go all the way!

:thanks:

[1KlntC07]

I've heard of them and have seen a few pictures of tcs running them, but not many. I think that company is mostly known for their lighting mods. I've seen it before and have thought about gettin it too since I got alot of CF stuff already, but 250 seems kinda pricey. Specially since your like me and already have the Injen one.

[TRD TC]

yea that seems like a high price not really feeling it either but it would be different than other people have so i guess you will have your pro's and con's

I had my hood painted and cleared. I have the Seibon VIS II hood..... The hood is about 2 years old and still looks brand new...

I have seen CF hoods not clear coated and they turn yellow, crack and fade within a year or so.

SO OPINION QUESTION....when i put the CF gas door on it, it will not have my pin strip across it. should i add it or not? don't know which would look better.....

[m8kemeasandwich]

With them, you will just have to be patient. Production is usually 10-14 days and then shipping tacks on a few more days....depending on the size or demand.

:/ sucks, but it is worth the wait.

Maybe someone can step their game up, but until then.....patience must be the virtue.

did you get from the same company? if so, let me know how you like the quality. on the sides of mine you can see where the 2 pieces meet! but the gas cover i got was perfect.

We are hoping to finish the Carbon Fiber headliner soon. The mold has been made just have to do some final testing and clean up.

if you need some additional test fitters. I'd be happy to oblige. :)

[muzachead]

woo hoo CF engine cover just delivered! i need to get off work, lol

[m8kemeasandwich]

Nice...still waiting on the C-Pillars. Ordered on the 6th of January. They must be backed up like a mofo. :boxing:

[1KlntC07]

anyone seen a tc with these? thinking of running some not as agressive skirts and getting these to go with them.

what do you guys think? also what side skirts you think would look best with these? I like being different lol

[muzachead]

the side things are cool just almost a waste if you dump your bags and smack them when you hit the ground....im iffy on it.

i think you would need a CF front if you could find one that would be sick nasty

[papi_tc08]

In the war for Carbon Fiber supremacy i would go with VIS. I have the EVO hood on my TC for three years now. I only wax twice a year. No cracks, no fading, just beautiful CF. I know it is more expensive, but why spend money on a product your not proud of. I want people to think that i have a pampered Scion. Take care of your Tc and she will take care of you.

[muzachead]

here you go justin...lol

Has anyone looked at topshopcarbon for custom parts before. They do everything. And at a reasonable price also

[m8kemeasandwich]

I'm getting a warning from Mozilla about TopShopCarbon....

...makes me wonder if they're legit and not phishing for financial information and passwords.

I don't think their prices will be as competitive as C12. Although I wish C12 could improve their shipping reputation.

*Update*
No C-Pillars yet, although they should arrive this week. Ordered on the 6th of Jan. :icon_wacko:

anybody have any experience with them? Pricing?!?

[muzachead]

experience with topcarbon or C12

C12 does need to improve the shipping skills...although i thnk it is just how long it really takes them to process an order and make it.

CF Engine cover
CF Air diverter
CF Fuse Box
CF Gas Door
CF B-pillar appliques
CF license plate applique

wanting a piece of CF to cover the under side of my hood or maybe even a cover for that battery....

[sosborne]

id like:
oem hood in cf
if my car wasnt so low an apr splitter
hatch would be nice as well

but for now i just have the garnish and b pillar appliques.

[muzachead]

i've heard the hatch is a pain to get the window switched over...

[THansenite]

Some of you have probably seen this, but this is my center gauge panel from a while back. Personally, I think the pillar gauges look gaudy as hell and wanted somewhat of a stealth setup. I fabbed the panel myself and had planned on making a second panel, but sold the car before that happened.
